: And then you posted defending someone who holds teh blatantly hypocritical and anti-personal freedom line, that 'I don't mind people being gay, so long as they do it out of my sight....'

Support that line of thinking RD, I dont think it's anti-personal freedom. Heterosexuality, thankfully, isnt so twisted and publicity hunting so I hope no exception is going to be made for gays just because they where oppressed once.

: : This is the second time you've attacked me, the first was over feminism. I'd be wary of drwing racial comparisons or accusing people of anti-this or that (anti-feminism?) because it closes down the debate entirely.

: I don't recall calling youi an anti-feminist, I do recall drawing you up on beliefs I consider to be anti-libertarian, I think the analogy holds...

Fine, listen you draw away but are you any judge? Are you fit to box this and make it doctrinare? I'll just not be a libertarian then, hows about that?

: I didn't say you were, hopwever, the point stands, that I find it difficult to concieve of a libertarian philosophy that condemns homosexuality, or holds that it is some sort of aberation even

And since when did sexuality play such a pivotal role in libertarianism? I thought it was a philosophy that esposed anti-authoritarianism and arbitary control not differences of opinion and attempts to make society reflect your values through persuasion alone but then I'm not a libertarian and what would I know anyway?

:...mind, you could go off and join Militant, no Gays under socialism apparently, a perversion brought on by Capitalism....another classic of Marxism ROFLMAOism.

Dont know what this is about.
